A skydiver has jumped out of an aircraft but has not yet opened her
parachute.
Which of these statements best describes what is happening?

1. She is pushed towards the Earth by the force of gravity.

2.She is pulled towards the Earth by the force of gravity.

3.She is pulled towards the Earth by air resistance.

4. She is pushed towards the Earth by air resistance.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She is pulled towards the Earth by the force of gravity.

Explanation:

As a skydiver jumps, gravity pulls them towards the earth, accelerating their fall. At the same time, air resistance is pushing back on them and increases at higher speeds. ... At this point, they will have reached terminal velocity and will fall at a constant speed, no longer accelerating.

Answer 2

The statement (2) She is pulled towards the Earth by the force of gravity is correct.

What is gravitational force?

The gravitational force is a force that attracts all mass-bearing objects. The gravitational force is referred to as attractive because it always strives to pull masses together rather than pushing them apart.

A skydiver has jumped out of an aircraft but has not yet opened her parachute.

As we know, the gravitational force is given by:

[tex]\rm F = \dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}[/tex]

Where, G is the gravitational constant.

m1 and m2 are masses.

r is the distance between the masses.

The statement (2) She is pulled towards the Earth by the force of gravity best describes what is happening.

Because the force of gravity pulled the skydiver.

Thus, the statement (2) She is pulled towards the Earth by the force of gravity is correct.

Suppose the equation of the velocity of a car at any given time is Vx= 30m/s+(2.5m/s^3)t^2 Find the change in the velocity of the car during time t1= 4s and t2= 5.5s (a) 70.00 m/s (b) 105.63 m/s (c) 35.63 m/s (d) 175.63 m/s

Answers

Answer:

time=4, answer choice A

time=5.5, answer choice B

Explanation:

This is taken from the kinematic equation, v=vo+(1/2)at^2

Velocity at time 4 = 30+(2.5)(4)^2

Velocity at time 5.5 = 30+(2.5)(5.5)^2

Velocity at time 4 seconds = 70 m/s

Velocity at time 5.5 seconds = 105.63 m/s

Planet RMM-1 has a mass of 28,500 kg and the star it revolves around has
a mass of 2.20 x 10^8 kg. If the star emits a gravitational force of 39 N how
far away are the two objects from each other?

Answers

Gravitational force = G · (mass₁) · (mass₂) / (distance)

(distance²) = G · (mass₁) · (mass₂) / (Gravitational force)

G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ n-m² / kg²  (the "gravitational constant")

Distance²  = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ n-m² / kg²) (28,500 kg) (2.2 x 10⁸ kg) / (39 N)

Distance² = (6.67 · 28,500 · 2.2 x 10⁻³ N-m²) / (39N)

Distance²  =  (418.209 N-m²) / (39N)

Distance²  =  10.72 m²

Distance = 3.275 meters

An absurd scenario, but that's by golly what the math says with the numbers provided.  I guess it's a teeny tiny planet orbiting 3.275 meters outside a teeny tiny black hole.

2. Calculate the kinetic energy of a football being launched downfield by Patrick Mahomes. The football has a mass of .5 kg and is thrown at a velocity of 25 m/s. Find the kinetic energy.​

Answers

Answer:

K.E = 156.25 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 0.5kg

Velocity = 25 m/s

To find the kinetic energy;

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}[/tex]

Where;

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}0.5*25^{2}[/tex]

[tex] K.E = 0.25 * 625 [/tex]

K.E = 156.25 Joules.

A wave traveling at 5.00x10^4 meters per second has a wavelength of 2.50x10^1 meters what is the frequency of the wave

Answers

Answer:

Frequency of the wave = 2 x 10³ hz

Explanation:

Given:

Velocity of wave = 5 x 10⁴

Wavelength = 2.5 x 10¹

Find:

Frequency of the wave

Computation:

Frequency of the wave = Velocity of wave / Wavelength

Frequency of the wave = [5 x 10⁴] / [2.5 x 10¹]

Frequency of the wave = 2 x 10³ hz

The frequency of a wave traveling at 5.00 x 10⁴ meters per second and a wavelength of 2.50x10¹ meters is 2 × 10³ Hz

HOW TO CALCULATE FREQUENCY:

The frequency of wave can be calculated by dividing the speed of the wave by its wavelength.

λ = v/f

Where,

V= velocity of the wavef = frequencyλ = wavelength

According to this question, a wave is traveling at 5.00 x 10⁴ m/s and has a wavelength of 2.50 x 10¹ meters. The frequency can be calculated as follows:

f = v ÷ λ

f = 5 × 10⁴ ÷ 2.5 × 10¹

f = 2 × 10³Hz

Therefore, the frequency of a wave traveling at 5.00 x 10⁴ meters per second and a wavelength of 2.50x10¹ meters is 2 × 10³Hz.

You can use the curved part of a spoon as a mirror because it ________ light.

Which best completes the statement?

Answers

Answer:

Reflects

Explanation:

A metal spoon looks very shiny because its surface is very smooth, which is why it acts like a mirror and reflects light very well.

You can use the curved part of the spoon as a mirror because it reflects light. Thus, the correct option is A.

What is reflection of light?

Reflection is the phenomena of light, when the ray of light bounces off an object. If the surface is smooth and shiny, just like a glass, water or polished metal surface, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface of the object. This is called as specular reflection.

The laws of reflection states that the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal ray all lie at the same point of incidence, and lie in the same plane of the surface. And, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection of light.


Therefore, the correct option is A.

An electron is pushed eastwards with a force of 1.64 x 10-21 N when placed in an electric
field. Determine the
(a) magnitude and
(b) direction of the electric field.

Answers

Answer: 1.02 x 10^-2 N/C to the east

Explanation:

Hi,

To find the magnitude of the electric field in this problem, you simply have to use the formula F = qE

F = Force

q = charge of the particle

E = magnitude of the electric field

Here, we are told that a force is being acted on an electron and we aren't told any specific quantity of charge for the electron. Therefore, we can assume that the charge of the electron will be its conventional charge of 1.602 x 10^-19 C

We are also given the force which is 1.64 x 10^-21 N

We solve for E

E = F/q

We plug in

E = (1.64 x 10^-21 N)/(1.602 x 10^-19 C)

E = 1.02 x 10^-2 N/C

The direction will be the east because the angle didn't change.

8A
9mA
700mA
12A​

Answers

Answer:

700ma

Explanation:

all u do is have to add them up.

Ohm's law allows us to calculate the result for the value of the current when we change the resistance of the circuit:

The current is: i = 8 A

Ohm's law establishes that voltage is proportional to current and we call the constant of proportionality resistance in a circuit.

           V = i R

Where V is the voltage, i the current and R the resistance of the circuit.

They indicate that the source supplies a current of i = 200 mA = 0.200 A at a load of R = 2 kΩ = 2 10³ Ω

Let's find the source voltage.

           V = 0.200 2 10³

           v = 400 V

Now with this voltage let's find the current for the new load of R = 50 Ω

          i = V / R

          i = 400/50

          i = 8 A

In conclusion using Ohm's law we can calculate the result for the value of the current when we change the resistance of the circuit is:

The current is: i = 8 A
